John Warrow gets "corrected" by McDermott
Draconator replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
In my defense, anything time Warrow gets corrected, he's schooled as a result of his past actions on this very platform. -
Brady sees it differently.

Just for this, Sean can coach the rest of the year.

I've already started drinking for this game. I'll be all nice and liquored up for kickoff.

24 Hour Later Thoughts... Even a DEEP Thought
Draconator replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall
I've seen a lot of comments about Josh's enthusiasm after Shakir's touchdown. But before that, Josh ran to Ty Johnson and jumped in his arms while Ty was in the stands to celebrate his TD. That was when Josh was back for me. -
What you are not recognizing, and something I did poorly to convey, is that those of us who invested time, money, and a good portion of our lives in the A's, are not too happy with the path the ownership of the A's took to get to this point. I have many lifelong friends who I met in the left field bleachers at the Colosseum. One of my greatest sports memories is sitting with my then-wife in the front row of the bleachers and watching Scott Hattiberg hit the home run to give the A's 20 wins in a row. Yep. We also had to sit through plays like you posted the gif for above. I compare Bills Mafia to those A's diehards to live and die by their team. Spend a boatload of money on tickets and merch for that team. Tailgating for A's game (albeit on a much smaller scale) is very reminiscent of a Bills home game tailgate. I'm not going to argue anymore. You have your opinion. I have mine. The thing is, seeing the A's move to Vegas, kinda hurts. And it's not the fan's fault either.

It's more than feels, it's facts. But keep living in your past Derek Jeter dreams...

If that is the case, typical Yankee fan injecting false knowledge they know nothing about.

Keep living in your fantasy world. I was at a good amount of games, with 15,000 people, and 55,000 people. I'm vastly more qualified to be talking about this than you are. You are wrong, and that's the final word.

You sir, are so far off base it's laughable. As a former A's season ticket holder, the A's fans have done nothing but support the team. The issue was the stadium was once a great place to watch baseball. Then the city of Oakland caved to Al Davis and built that travesty called Mt. Davis in center field, and turned the collisseum into the worst stadium to watch a game. The fans still came out and supported the team. When the stupid owners tarped the entire upper deck, 35,000 we're at the collisseum for pivotable games. When the tarps came off, 55,000 would show up. Then Billy Beane gutted this team of talent all in the name of metrics, and John Fisher took that another step further and the A's fielded a AAA team against major league competition. That's why fans didn't go. The product and environment sucks. That was all a plot by John Fisher to sing a sad song to MLB in order to move.

There were many times Nance and Romo blatantly made fun of the Jets

He's a loner Dotty, A rebel

The score in the Giants Commanders game was 21-12. I was satisfied as a man for that brief moment in time

It's crazy that Arizona could beat the Texans
-
Stroud shouldn't throw into triple coverage
-
I can't remember the new mayor's name, but she has been VERY vocal in dispelling everything the A's have been saying.
-
A strong possibility exists that the A's could move for 2024, playing outdoors in their Tripple A stadium until the new stadium is built.
-
The City of Oakland and The A's were super close to a new stadium being built on the Pier in Downtown Oakland. Then at the last minute, the A's backed out and said the city was giving no financial aid. Total lies by the A's.
-
Let's see if they can get that retractable roof stadium built on 9 acres. My money is on no.
-
There is so much baseball history in Oakland. But the greedy John Fisher and the rest of MLB don't care about history. Good luck in Vegas. You're going to need it.

Will Zack Wilson cruise Broadway in Lancaster looking for the elder ladies? Stay tuned.

Josh Allen needs his Phil Jackson…(edited title)
Draconator replied to Lenigmusx's topic in The Stadium Wall
Do you really want me to drink this early in the morning?!?! OH WAIT!!! I have coffee and Bailey's Irish Cream!!! Carry on. As you were. -
I simply cannot argue with that. You are of another level which I strive to achieve.

But if this trip is to help Josh, and we sacrifice Josh, isn't that kinda counterintuitive? (See, I used a college word)
